Overview & Guidelines for Alessandro
Page documents:
The website currently has a strong visual foundation — the color palette, glass treatments, waveform animations, and section layouts all feel premium. Most of the changes below are about tightening structure, fixing content, and aligning copy with our positioning.
Not a supplement bro. Not a health influencer. Not a corporate brand. A smart, warm, precise friend.
Would this feel at home on the wall of an Aesop store? If it reads like a GNC shelf or a startup pitch deck — rewrite it.
FLOW's core message. Focus isn't about adding more — it's about removing what's in the way. The website should embody this.
Headlines create emotion. Body text delivers mechanism. Ingredient cards provide proof. In that order.
Handle these first — they affect every page.
The nav currently varies between pages. Lock it to this across the entire site:
| Current | New | Why |
|---|---|---|
| "FLOW" (ambiguous) | FLOW (links to new FLOW landing page) | Dedicated product story page |
| "About" | Why BIZZ | More specific, matches page name |
| "Contacts" | Removed (goes to footer) | Low-value nav slot |
| "Buy Now" | Shop FLOW (filled button) | Names the actual product |
| "How It Works" missing | Added | Key page was missing from nav |
| ALL CAPS | Title Case | Warmer, more editorial |
Almost every section has a small label above the headline ("DISCOVER BIZZ", "WHY BIZZ?", "ORAL INGESTION", "WHAT'S BIZZ?", "RESEARCH TRACKS"). These labels:
Remove all section labels site-wide. The headlines are strong enough on their own.
| Section | Currently On | Should Live On |
|---|---|---|
| Why Gum (copper section) | Homepage + How It Works | How It Works only |
| Brain States grid (forest section) | Homepage + Brain States | Brain States only |
On the Homepage, these get replaced with new content (details in the Homepage doc).
This text appears 3+ times across the site. The analogy doesn't work for gum and creates confusion each time. Remove from every page.
| Placeholder | Replace With |
|---|---|
| "Nutrient Name" cards (8+ times) | Real ingredients: Huperzine A, 5-HTP, Methylated B-Complex, D3 + K2 (copy provided in page docs) |
| "Name, Surname" testimonial | Real quotes (KJ providing separately) |
| Lorem ipsum on Brain States | Real Focus description (copy provided) |
| "Theanine Acids (Thanic)" | Not a real compound — replace with Huperzine A |
After review, we want to lock the site to our brand fonts: NaN Fiasco ExtraBlack for display/headlines and PP Neue Montreal (Medium + SemiBold) for body text. These are the fonts in our brand guide and they should be used consistently across every page.
Font files are included in this feedback package for download:
| Current | New |

| Los Angeles | Manhattan Beach, California |
| No "Shop FLOW" in footer | Add "Shop FLOW" button |
| "Blog" link | Remove (no blog exists) |
| Brain state links (Focus, Calm...) | Remove (pages don't exist) |
| "Manage Subscriptions" | Keep — we're launching with a subscription option. Ensure this links to the Shopify customer account page. |
| "Keep me updated" | "Follow the Journey" |
The site currently has zero risk reversal — no guarantee, no "money back," no safety net. For an unknown brand at $21.99, this is a real conversion barrier. Confident brands offer guarantees because they know the product works.
Suggested copy (pick one, use consistently):
Place near the primary CTA on every page that has a "Shop FLOW" button — doesn't need its own section, just a line under the price or CTA.
Currently only mentioned once on the FLOW page. Shipping cost is one of the top reasons visitors abandon purchases. Surface it proactively — near every price display and in the footer.
When ingredient names appear anywhere on the site, follow this priority:
| Tier | Ingredient | Consumer Name | How to Use |
|---|---|---|---|
| LEAD | Huperzine A (50mcg) | "The focus extender" | Always mention first |
| LEAD | Methylated B-Complex | "Brain fuel your body can use" | Always mention |
| PROMOTE | 5-HTP (50mg) | "The calm molecule" | Feature prominently |
| PROMOTE | Vitamin D3 + K2 (625 IU + 50mcg) | "The neurotransmitter activator" | 4th featured card — D3 upregulates serotonin & dopamine production enzymes |
| SUPPORT | Alpha-GPC (10mg) | "Choline source" | Part of system, not standalone |
| SUPPORT | Phosphatidylserine (30mg) | "Cell membrane support" | Part of system, not standalone |
| SUPPORT | Zinc (3mg elemental) + Selenium (10mcg) | "Cognitive minerals" | Part of system, not standalone |
| SUPPORT | Vitamin C (8mg) | "Antioxidant support" | Supporting line only |
| ALWAYS | Natural Chicle & Mastic Base | "The original gum" | Mention with every product reference |
When you're unsure about a design choice, run it through these filters:
People scan, they don't read. Bold headlines should tell the story even if body text is skipped. If a section needs a paragraph to make sense, simplify.
Never go more than 1.5 viewport heights without a "Shop FLOW" option. If someone is convinced at any point, they should be able to act immediately.
Every section should do a specific job. If two sections do the same job, cut one. If a section doesn't build toward "Shop FLOW" or "Follow the Journey," question it.
Aesop = editorial, warm, generous whitespace, confident restraint. GNC = busy, clinical, comparison charts, neon highlights. Always choose Aesop.
Only FLOW exists right now. Every other brain state (Calm, Sleep, Motivation, Creativity) should be clearly marked as "coming" — never shown as purchasable.
Every page should be shareable. If someone sends chewbizz.com/flow to a friend, that friend should understand the product in 60 seconds of scrolling.
| Page | URL | Job | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Homepage | / | CONVERT — get visitors to Shop FLOW | Restructure |
| Brain States | /brain-states | EDUCATE — explain the framework | Restructure |
| FLOW | /flow | CONVINCE — the full product story | NEW (replaces Focus Template) |
| How It Works | /how-it-works | EXPLAIN — why gum, why these ingredients | Restructure + new sections |
| Why BIZZ | /why-bizz | INSPIRE — brand philosophy | Tighten (cut 35%) |
| FLOW PDP | store.chewbizz.com | BUY — the transaction | Shopify (separate) |
Each page is designed for a specific type of visitor at a specific stage of awareness. Use this to guide design decisions — the visitor's mindset determines what they need to see first.
| Page | They came from... | Awareness | What they're thinking |
|---|---|---|---|
| Homepage | Google "focus gum," friend's link, ad | Solution Aware | "What is this? Is it for me?" |
| Brain States | Clicked from homepage, curious | Problem → Solution Aware | "How does this relate to my brain?" |
| FLOW | Reddit link, TikTok bio, email CTA, friend | ALL levels (must be self-contained) | "Tell me everything about this product." |
| How It Works | Clicked from homepage or FLOW | Solution → Product Aware | "Prove it. Show me the science." |
| Why BIZZ | Already interested, evaluating the brand | Product → Most Aware | "Who are these people? Can I trust them?" |
If tackling iteratively, work in this sequence:
